Liver Fibroscan®
An endoscopy is a procedure done to examine structures inside your body up close. During an endoscopy, a healthcare provider places a long, thin tube (endoscope) inside your body until it reaches the organ or area they need to check. Most endoscopes have a light and special camera at the end. The scope captures images or videos of organs or other body parts. It displays them on a screen your provider sees.
Why Do I Need a Fibroscan?
Doctors recommend a Fibroscan liver test if you show signs of any progressive liver disease, as it offers more specific and sensitive results compared to a traditional ultrasound scan for detecting fibrosis. By identifying liver issues early, the test allows for timely medical intervention and effective treatment planning.
